Chapter 235
Could it be Scorpion?
Silvia had a solemn look as she thought of him. She opened her WhatsApp and sent a
message to the person with the black profile picture. [Find out where Scorpion has been
recently.]
[Scorpion has abruptly vanished. It’ll probably be very difficult to find any clues, but I’ll try
my best.]
[Okay.]
She then closed the conversation and looked down as she fell into deep thought.
After she took a shower and got ready for bed, Isla suddenly came to her.
“Look, is this your pretentious sister?”
Silvia looked at Isla’s phone. It was playing a video of someone jumping off the building
where the design competition was held. Someone on the scene had filmed it by accident.
Although the jumper was far away and her face was not very clear, Silvia could
immediately tell that it was Ada.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe frowned. “Where did you get this video, Isla?”
“Someone uploaded it to Twitter this evening. I was just scrolling through my feed when I
saw this. I thought that she looked like Ada, so I decided to show it to you.”
Silvia nodded. “It’s her.”
Why would Ada jump off the building, though?
Was she trying to use the design competition to go viral? She was not the type of person
who would resort to such tactics for attention.
“Was she eliminated from the design competition? Maybe she couldn’t accept it and tried
to commit suicide?”
Silvia pursed her lips. “I’m not sure.”
After Isla left, she immediately gave Blake a call.
“Mr. Williams, have you seen the news of Ada Pond’s attempted suicide?”
“I’ve seen it. She should have chosen a higher building if she wanted to do that. Jumping
off the second floor will only lead to a bone fracture at most!!
Blake sounded stressed. After Ada attempted suicide, people online started to wonder if
there was any hidden conspiracy involving the design competition.
The PR Department had to deal with it for two hours and release news of Ada being in the
next round before things gradually died down. He had been so busy that he had no time
for dinner.
“Have you identified the reason for her actions?”
Blake hesitated for a few seconds before he slowly said, “Miss Pond, this might have
something to do with Mr. Remus.‘
Chapter 235
Since Neil had announced his marriage to Silvia in front of the Pond Family, the upper
class in Ryoln City knew that they were a married couple.
However, Blake was also aware that they were not on good terms partly because of Ada.
As such, he did not want to broach the subject in front of Silvia.
“What does he have to do with this?”
“Miss Ada Pond jumped from his lounge window. I heard that she was barely conscious
when she hit the ground, and she kept tearing off her clothes. If a few female designers
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhadn’t covered her, who knows what would have happened…”
Silvia looked down and suddenly came up with a guess.
“Alright. Thank you for telling me, Mr. Williams.”
After Silvia ended the call, she sent Neil a message. [Did Ada drug me today?]
Neil only replied after a long time. [Yes. Sorry, I was in a meeting earlier.]
Then, she asked, [Did you drug her back?]
As soon as she sent the message, Neil called her.
Silvia subconsciously tightened her grip on her phone, and it took her a few seconds to
answer.
“Hello?”
“I did drug her, and I even found her a man. She didn’t want to sleep with him, so she
jumped off the building. What else do you want to know?” Neil said indifferently.
Silvia froze, and she only heard her own voice after what seemed like forever.
“Don’t you… like her? Why would you do this to her?”
could not have done that on her own.
